Looking for cheaper options on SSL Certificates

[jordanmartin]

I am looking at using my site to collect customer information and orders, so I need a SSL certificate for secure communication. What are the cheaper and reliable options available?

Secure communication is the need for ecommerce applications in order to maintain privacy of the customer data and ssl certificates are a reliable solution to that. There are products available from different certification authorities like geotrust, verisign and others. Their product range with variety of encryption and e-commerce security features provides great pricing options.

You could create a Self-Signed Certificate to enable SSL, but everyone will know and
some will not authorize the connection without a Root Cert that can vouch for you.
